Anyone have any idea what this could be? Repotted & planted dozens of plants before finding this in the mix.

Definitely not canistel...this is a softer seed & growing a bunch of canistel now. I had plants from all over the country & from other countries, so really could be many things. Just have never seen a seed with this bright yellow under the outer shell.

By the seed shape, colour, and the type of roots, it looks to me some kind of Garcinia, but I'm unable to determine which one.

I recently purchased imbe seeds (Garcinia livingstonei) that looked quite similar to your photos. I just don't remember if they were light green or yellow. It's yellow kind of like gamboge (Garcinia xanthochymus).
